Corporate Investigations
Our corporate investigations service addresses fraud, asset protection, and regulatory compliance for businesses. We deploy discreet surveillance and digital forensics to uncover misconduct, safeguard intellectual property, and ensure legal adherence. Clients benefit from actionable intelligence delivered with strict confidentiality, supporting informed decision-making and risk mitigation for organisations of all sizes.
Digital Forensics
Specialising in digital evidence retrieval, our forensics team recovers data from devices including phones, laptops, and cloud systems. We analyse electronic communications, financial records, and digital footprints to support legal cases or internal investigations. Clients receive court-ready reports with clear timelines and evidence mapping, ensuring defensible outcomes for litigation or disciplinary processes.
Person Tracing
Using advanced databases and field techniques, we locate individuals for debt recovery, legal proceedings, or family matters. Our investigators combine electoral roll checks with digital footprint analysis to ensure accurate identification. Clients receive verified contact details and location intelligence, enabling reconnection or legal action with minimal disruption to their operations.
Bug Sweeps
Our technical sweeps identify unauthorised listening devices in residential, commercial, and vehicle environments. Using spectrum analysers and thermal imaging, we detect GSM bugs, RF transmitters, and hidden cameras. Clients benefit from comprehensive security audits and remediation advice, restoring privacy and preventing corporate espionage or personal intrusion.
Lie Detector Tests
Conducted by BEPA-certified examiners, our polygraph tests measure physiological responses to resolve disputes or verify claims. We employ validated questioning techniques to ensure admissible results for personal, employment, or legal contexts. Clients receive immediate verbal results and written documentation, supporting conflict resolution or evidential requirements with scientific precision.

I would recommend this company as the level of service and attention to customer requirements was excellent. They listen and also advise on other options available for customers, they gave us three options. We were then able to cherry pick the best from the three for our final plan.
